FIRE EMERGENCY PROCEDURES

  1. IF YOU SEE ACTUAL FLAMES OR BILLOWING SMOKE, PULL THE NEAREST FIRE ALARM AND CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY!
  2. STATE THE NATURE OF THE EMERGENCY, YOUR LOCATION IN THE OFFICE, YOUR COMPANY NAME AND SUITE NUMBER.
  3. CALL THE BUILDING MANAGEMENT OFFICE AT 630-250-9700 THEY WILL DISPATCH STAFF IMMEDIATELY TO INVESTIGATE EVEN IF YOU SMELL SMOKE BUT DON’T SEE ANY FLAMES.

If instructed by the Fire Department, Building Management, or by using your best judgment, evacuate all people from your suite VIA THE EXIT AS ASSIGNED - DO NOT USE THE ELEVATORS!!

In the event of an actual alarm the entire building is alerted and will be evacuated.  If an alarm should sound, do not call the Building Management Office for verification or instructions.  Please evacuate the building immediately.

Most fires will be confined to the room of origin if the doors are closed.  Close the door(s) to the area once everyone is evacuated.

If you see an unconfined fire of any size, immediately alert the people in your area and leave your floor.  Fire alarm pull station boxes and fire extinguishers are located next to the stairwell doors.  The pull station boxes are red and the fire extinguisher boxes are labeled.  When activated, the alarm box will set the alarm off in the building and immediately notify the Fire Department.  Upon activating the alarm, leave the building.
